Mount Inasa

Evening peeps, it's Sunday and I am back for another weekly update. In today's post, I will be sharing about my trip to Mount Inasa. Mount Inasa is located in the Nagasaki prefecture. The mountain housed one of the top 3 night views in Japan. Definitely worth a visit! To get to the place, one have to take the tram and alight at Takara-Machi (宝町), then walk about 10 to 20 minutes to reach the base of the ropeway station. It's quite a straight-forward walk, if you need help, there are signs telling you where to walk to reach the ropeway station.

The ropeway return ticket cost ¥1,230 (Approx. S$15.35) and the ride is about 10 minutes long. From the summit, you get to see the beautiful skyline of Nagasaki. Nagasaki really has one of the nicest views considering that it is a port city. I went during the sunset, it was okay overall. I believed the night time would be perfect. I stayed for about 45 minutes at the place before descending back to the ground and head back to take the Shinkansen back to Hakata.

At the observatory, there are also souvenirs for purchases not to mention, a nice rest spot before you head for your next destination. There are the usual amenities such as restrooms and benches around. Anyway, before you enter the ropeway station, you can explore one of the shrines located nearby. It's a small shrine but it's still a beautiful place to take some photos.
